Step 4: Configure The Database

Next, you need to create a PostgreSQL database and user for the application. Run the following commands to set up a new database and user:

su - postgres
psql
CREATE USER django WITH PASSWORD 'password';
CREATE DATABASE django_todo OWNER django;
ALTER ROLE django SET client_encoding TO 'utf8';

Step 5: Create Django-todo Project

        'NAME': 'django_todo',
        'USER': 'django',
        'PASSWORD': 'password',
        'HOST': 'localhost',
        'PORT': '',
    }
}

Step 7: Run Migrations and Test the Installation
